How to increase unit attack range?

[overload119]

Topic.

I want the range of guard tower to be 2000.

I set that in WorldEdit, but it's only 700.

I tried going into game constants, but couldn't find which one to change.

I believe the Range can only be equal or less than the Acquisition Range. The acquisition range is slightly above range. Change it in order to freely insert a value for Range.

Or do it in another way. Use upgrades to apply range increment.

I believe 1800 is the default max without upgrades because thats the sight radius limit.
It may be possible to attack beyond the sight radius although the tower won't be viewing it's target in fog of war. The sight radius max is 1800 (different sight radii for day/night) while the acquisition range and actual range can go beyond that. You need to look at the acquisition range first and then the sight radius and finally the actual range itself.

I don't think that's right, I've seen range as high as 20 000, (map wide), as long as you give vision of the map to the owner of the unit.

Also thanks for everyones help.

max unit range = MIN(Default aquisition range, unit attack range)

So basically, you can easilly make something have 800000 range as long as the aquisition is equal to or larger than that number.

Note that the trigger action / function to change aquisition range will not update this range.
